Witches

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Harry Potter, #5)

by J.K. Rowling · Harry Potter series

Harry returns to Hogwarts traumatized and angry, only to face Ministry denial of Voldemort's return and a sadistic bureaucrat determined to silence him. As adolescent rage collides with institutional corruption, Rowling explores propaganda, post-traumatic stress, and the isolation of speaking truth to power. The formation of Dumbledore's Army and the devastating Department of Mysteries battle mark Harry's transition from student to soldier.
